Channing Tatumisn’t looking forward to the day that his daughter finally seesMagic Mike.

The actor, 44, who appeared on the Wednesday, Aug. 22 episode ofLate Night with Seth Meyersto promote his upcoming filmBlink Twice, shared a story about taking his daughter Everly, 11, to seeTaylor Swift’s Eras Tour in Los Angeles, Calif.

Tatum noted that it was a different experience taking Everly, whom he shares with exJenna Dewan, to see Swift than it waswhen he went in Londonwith fiancéeZoë Kravitz.

“I saw it in LA with my daughter. Seeing it with your daughter is very different because you know, you gotta like go in. I was dancing like I’d never danced before," Tatum told hostSeth Meyers.

“That’s a lot coming from you,” Meyers responded, referencing the actor’s movie franchiseMagic Mike, which features male strippers.

“Well you also have to make sure you’re not dancing like you dance, you know what I mean? There was none of this,” Tatum joked, doing a body roll. “There was zero of that.”

“I’m so grateful that she doesn’t know how I dance,” he continued, prompting Meyers to ask when he’ll let her find out about his moves. The host added that she will find out one day, most likely from someone other than her dad.

“It’s going to be horrifying when it does. But it’s a lot of like, this stuff and I’m just gonna keep it in that area,” Tatum said, swinging his arms to mimic his dad-approved dancing.

Meyers also joked that Everly is “going to be the parent” the first time she sees Magic Mike. “You’re going to come home and she’s like going to flip on a lamp and be like, ‘We need to talk,’ " he teased Tatum.

Tatum also included a few solo shots of Everly, who posed in the same style as the first photo, staring straight ahead.
